Boiler Operator's Guide

Summary: Boiler operators guide - a must have
Review: I am currently studying for a New Zealand Boiler Attendants National Certifificate level 2 (for operating boilers up to 6MW)and have been operating for over 2 years. I wish I'd had this book before I sent my last 2 assignments in. I would thoroughly recommend this book for any operator.
Only negative I have is the lack of metric units, but that does'nt detract from the usefullnes of this book.

Summary: Guiding Lites for Boiler Operators
Review: This book provides a good basic understanding of boiler operations on a wide variety of boilers. It is geared towards the novice operator or for as a learning guide. The depth is somewhat limited and is not supported by any theory. The author describes the overall process but does not get into optimizing the boiler, which every operator should do.

This reading is not meant to be entertaining or for light reading, but a study guide for the operator...
